How do i make it so i can make containment gates spawn on a map so they are floating? Do i change a weapon spawn to them or do i have to do something differnt?

If you want them to be just platforms just dupliticate an itmc and then change the dependcy to the gate. Then in Entity, Clone the netgame equipment to how many gates you want to spawn. Then open the bsp viewer and search around until you see the gates on the map. Move them to where you want them. Make sure you set the gates to spawn only once or else the game will slow down over time and freeze.

go to the scenerio tag, right click and clone chunks. type in whatever number you want. click on the netgame equipment, choose anything you want to clone in the netgame. hit clone, then add meta to map. This is for any version of entity above alpha.

What do you mean the bsp viewer doesn't work?

Edit: Here use this tuturial How to add things only using Entity
